UUUGGHHH changed intake gasket wont idle!!!!!!!! 200

Ok today I changed my intake gasket FI orings and breather box.
Went to start her up after I finished and she idled fine a little lopey but better than before. Drove her around the block and parked her, I went back to start her up because I needed to go to the store she started up and slowly died! Idle was normal for a few seconds then she just started idling really low and died out. 5 starts after and she still keeps doing it. I checked all my vac lines and even replace a few while I had her all apart. When I replaced my breather box I noticed it did not fit very tight at the bottom oil line, the breather box I replaced my old one with was also not a tight fit either. I am pretty sure the intake it on pretty tight and I rechecked everything. I really hope someone can help I am really stumped I'm just sitting here in the garage trying to figure it out. HELP!
